Drama in the men's high jump final - Olympic champion Hamish Kerr squeezes over 2.31 metres after failing on his first two attempts.

World indoor champion Sanghyeok Woo has recovered from his earlier blip and sits in first place, with the Czech Republic's Jan Stefela second.

Oleh Doroshchuk is joint-third with Kerr after needing a third attempt to clear 2.31m.

It's time for the final gold medal event of the day, with the men's 110m hurdles title up for grabs.

Three-time champion Grant Holloway failed to qualify for the final, so a new name will take his crown.

Jamaica's Tyler Mason is probably the favourite after running the fastest time in the heats and semi-finals. He ran a personal best of 13.12 seconds in the latter race.

USA's Cordell Tinch has been the fastest hurdler in the world this year and recovered from a lacklustre performance in the heats to run 13.16 in the semi-finals.

Japan's Rachid Muratake (13.17) ran the third-fastest time in the semi-finals while Spain's Enrique Llopis, who came fourth in last year's Olympic final, and American teenager Ja'Kobe Thorp are also in the medal mix.

The depth in 400m has never been so strong. Hudson-Smith has done incredible, he was hoping to turn silver into gold so not making the final, he will be absolutely crushed.

He could not have done any more, he pushed out the blocks, when you are in lane two your biggest competitors seem so far away from you in lane five, six and seven. He paced himself and was up there with 200 metres gone.

He was quite unfortunate having that hip problem, we aren't quite sure what it was two days ago. I think because of that and not going through as an automatic qualifier, I think it was all down to the lane draw today.

He looked fine to me, he didn't look in any pain today, I think it was just an unfortunate sequence of events.

Over in the men's high jump final, Hamish Kerr and Oleh Doroshchuk lead the way having cleared 2.28 metres with their first attempts.

They're joined in joint-first place by JuVaughn Harrison of the United States, though South Korea's Sanghyeok Woo has dropped off the pace as he needed two attempts to pass 2.28m.

Woo will remain confident though - after all, he is undefeated this year.

Surely nobody doubted Faith Kipyegon?

The queen of middle distance running pulls away in the final 200 metres and wins by over two seconds, clocking a time of 3:52:15.

Compatriot Dorcus Ewoi takes the silver medal with a PB of 3:54:92, while Australia's Jessica Hull survives a late attack from Kenya's Nelly Chepchirchir to take third place, and earn her nation a first ever medal in the women's 1500m.

Final lap and Faith Kipyegon is slowly turning the screw. This isn't super quick, but nobody has reeled her in yet!

Two laps to go, Faith Kipyegon remains in control. Is she going to win a fifth world title?

Faith Kipyegon is at the front with three laps to go, with Australia's Jessica Hull second.

From one legend of the sport to another.

Last night we were all treated to a spectacular show from Swedish superstar Mondo Duplantis, the one we all hoped that he would deliver, soaring to history with a dramatic final attempt at 6.30m.

Tonight, another great bids for glory at Japan's National Stadium, as Faith Kipyegon aims to win her fifth world title.

The Kenyan has won the past four global 1500m titles, stretching back to the Tokyo Olympics, and could make it a fabulous five-in-a-row at the same stadium.

If you really squint your eyes, you can see Mondo Duplantis' signature has been added on the wall of medallists. Yep, right there, at the bottom, the squiggle with ‘6.30m WR’ written beside it.

I'm not sure many would bet against Kipyegon joining him.

As curriculum vitae go, Faith Kipyegon's isn't bad.

The Kenyan middle and long distance runner won 1500m gold at the 2016, 2020 and 2024 Olympics, and has won back-to-back world titles in the event, three in total.

She is also the world champion in the 5,000m.

In July Kipyegon set a new 1500m world record with a time of 3:48:68.

Will anyone be able to stop the 31-year-old from claiming a seventh global title in the 1500m?

It's hard to look beyond Faith Kipyegon in the final of the women's 1500 metres final, which starts in a few minutes.

After doing enough in the heats to progress, the 31-year-old Kenyan was the fastest in the semi-finals with a run of 4:00:34.

Fellow Kenyan Nelly Chepchirchir won her semi-final and said her experience of coming fifth in the 2023 final “is the big difference” this time around.

Olympic silver medallist Jessica Hull, American Nikki Hiltz and two-time world indoor champion Freweyni Hailu will all harbour realistic medal ambitions.

For the first time in a world or Olympic final since 2007 in Osaka, there are no British women in the final.

Botswana's Bayapo Ndori wins the third semi-final with a season's best time of 44.21 seconds but the cheers around the stadium are for home favourite Yuki Nakajima, who beats Muzala Samukonga to take second place.

Former world champion Kirani James flew out of the blocks but faded fast and finished last while Britain's Matt Hudson-Smith, a world and Olympic silver medallist, could only finish sixth (44.95). There will not be a British athlete in the men's 400m final.

Trinidad & Tobago's Jereem Richards and USA's Jacory Patterson reach the final as the fastest non-qualifiers.

We've talked about how they have to report 50 minutes before the gun time to a call room. Then they have to transport themselves 15 minutes down the road to the national stadium.

Apparently on that journey things tightened up for Matt Hudson-Smith [before the heats].

It's not an injury, but a niggle that he's had and it's a little concern.

That was gutting earlier for Japan's Shunsuke Izumiya, who crashed out of the men's 110m hurdles after hitting a barrier early on.

The crowd applauded him as he jumped over the remaining hurdles to complete the race all on his own, and he bows to the supporters in all four sides of the stadium - as have all the Japanese athletes - before exiting.

The cheers soon returned, though, as team-mates Ryoichi Akamatsu and Yuto Seko made successful starts in the men's high jump final, before hurdles medal hope Rachid Muratake got many of them on their feet in reaching tonight's final.

The home fans continue to give their athletes a passionate backing here.

Is Botswana's Busang Kebinatshipi the new gold medal favourite? A personal best and a world leading time of 43.61 seconds to win the second semi-final. He won that by a distance!

Jamaica's Rusheen McDonald (44.04) takes second place ahead of Jereem Richards (Trinidad and Tobago).

But USA's Jacory Patterson, who ran the fastest time in the heats, only manages fourth.

Great Britain's Charlie Dobson, a European silver medallist in 2024, comes home in seventh place.

Up next is London Diamond League meeting winner Charles Dobson of Great Britain.

The world number 10 needs a strong performance to get through this second semi-final.

Well, those delays didn't unsettle South Africa's Zakithi Nene, who runs an effortless 44.20 seconds to win the first semi-final.

Botswana's Lee Eppie qualifies in second place, with Australia's Reece Holder in third (44.63).

Great Britain's Samuel Reardon finishes eighth.

World indoor champion Christopher Bailey finishes a disappointing seventh.

Remember, the top two in each of the three semi-finals, plus the two fastest non-automatic qualifiers, will progress to Thursday's final.

Not the ideal start to the men's 400m semi-finals, as we've had two green cards.

Now the athletes are having to wait for a high jumper to make their attempt.

This is all a bit chaotic, and not good for the athletes to be hanging around for so long.
